Join us in the River Room for weekly live music! This week it's Lee Penn Sky. Lee plays folk-oriented songs that span the Americana range, and are rooted in his Michigan childhood and the high-plains desert of Idaho, where he now resides.  He has an affinity for Texan songwriters like Robert Earl Keen, Steve Earle, Willie Nelson, and the late great Townes Van Zandt.  While these artists inform Lee Penn Sky’s music, he doesn’t emulate his heroes.   Lee's songwriting is deceptively simple, but the unadorned nature of his writing makes the songs all the more powerful - he has a way of cutting to the heart of a matter and is often compared to Greg Brown or Colin Hay.  He has a unique, direct, almost lazy and often melancholic style of conveying his lyrics which lends to a very intimate feel.  Several of his songs from his debut album “Prelude to Hindsight” have been played on folk and alt-country radio shows throughout the United States and in Europe.
